This Issue comprises of selected papers from the International Conference on Law, Order and Criminal Justice, which took place on 19th and 20th November 2014, at the beautiful ISTAC Campus. The Conference was hosted by the Ahmad Ibrahim Kulliyyah of Laws, IIUM, in collaboration with the Malaysian Judiciary, the Royal Malaysian Police, the Institute

This paper presents a model for design and analysis of flutter-based microgenerators and a new concept for wind energy harvesting using thin-film cantilever with coils embedded on the sides of the cantilever. The analytical model predicts the flow-induced response of the thin-film cantilever at various parameters as well as the frequency of flutter

The polyamine biosynthesis pathway plays a significant role in cell growth, both normal and malignant. As polyamines are crucial in cellular growth and differentiation, they are linked to the development of cancer, with higher polyamine level observed in cancerous cells than in healthy cells. Accordingly, suppressing the polyamine pathway has been

Historically, Gross National Product (GNP) has been thought of as a key indicator in measuring the development level of a nation. Over the years, researchers have found that the single GNP indicator is not sufficient to be used to measure development. Numerous efforts have been done to create other composite indicators that could serve as complemen

Over the last decade Islamic banking has clear taken root. What began as novelty has made major strides. The main purpose of this paper was to explain the applicability of ‘urf in Islamic deposit products. This study set about the application of ‘urf in Islamic law briefly, moreover, the concept of deposit products in conventional bank just ana

In any engineering project, there is a need for a good framework and implementation process which are able to propagate effectively from the conceptual and detail design, to conducting simulation of the finalized design and finally creating a physical presence through assembly and prototyping process. Although these requirements could be generalize

A model reference adaptive control and a fixed gain LQR control were implemented in the height controller of a quadrotor that has parametric uncertainties due to the act of picking up an object of unknown dimension and mass. It is shown that an adaptive controller, unlike the fixed gain controller, is capable of ensuring a stable tracking performan

Subcontracting is a long-established practice in the construction industry to capitalize on the skills of trade specialists and to cope with the fluctuating construction demand. The main contractors relying so much on subcontractors to perform portion of works in construction projects that their performance may have significant effects to the overa

Extract of Syzygium aromaticum (Clove) is a lipophilic substance with low solubility in aqueous solution. As this may compromise its handling, bioavailability, and bio-absorption, oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion is formulated. Briefly, dried flower buds of cloves were grounded into a fine dry powder and macerated in absolute ethanol solvent for 48 h du

The polyamine biosynthesis is a ubiquitous pathway with a significant role in cell growth , both normal and malignant. As polyamines are crucial in cellular growth and differentiation, they are linked to the development of cancer, with higher polyamine level observed in cancerous cells than in healthy cells. Accordingly, suppressing the polyamine p
